There has been a lots of discussion on the phrase &#8220;in respect of&#8221; as used in the above clause. Some experts are of view that it has wider impact and covers all the goods and services that are relatable to motor vehicles. The other school of thought is of the view that this phrase is very restricted and is limited to ITC on the purchase of motor vehicles.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Earlier the twitter reply by department clarified that the credit on repair and maintenance of vehicle will not be allowed. However, recently, government has given clarification on this aspect by issuing FAQ. This clarification has been given as follows:-<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><em>&#8220;Whether GST paid on insurance and repairs on vehicles is allowed, when vehicles is used for Business purpose only?<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><em>ITC is allowed.&#8221;<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Thus, Government is also changing its stand. The Government has taken restricted meaning of phrase &#8220;in respect of&#8221; in recent clarification and has clarified that the restriction contained in this clause will be restricted to purchase of motor vehicle only. All the other related activities will be outside the purview of this restriction. Thus, going by this clarification, all the other services that are related to motor vehicles are admissible as input tax credit. It is worthwhile to mention here that these FAQs have no legal validity, but since the language has different interpretations; we can definitely follow the same.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><em>The content of this GST update is for educational purpose only and not intended for solicitation.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">You can reach us at <u>www.capradeepjain.com<\/u>, at our facebook page on <u>https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/GSTTODAYBYPRADEEPJAIN\/<\/u> as well as follow us on Twitter at <u>https:\/\/www.twitter.com\/@capradeepjain21<\/u><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Section 17(5) of the CGST Act, 2017 prescribes the list of blocked credits and this lists allows the ITC on few goods and services on conditional basis.
